The last years of his life he lived in Guadalajara, Mexico, and continued designing for Royal Haeger. Pieces made in his pottery listed here are marked Royal Hickman or Hickman. Pieces designed for the Haeger Potteries are marked Royal Haeger. The company is named Royal Hickman because Hickman's first name was Royal, not because it was approved by royalty.
